I think that there was sonething along those lines at one time.  I seem to
recall some sort of chat thing across some local BBSes back when.

I don't think strictly speaking MRC is necessarily Mystic only. I would think
that if someone managed a port to work with a different BBS program that as
long as it could connect to the same server the Mystic boards use, it should
work.

But I'm not that much of a programmer.  And what I do fiddle with is
primarily text based games so no help there.
